BUT UR CLEAN SO ITS 100 PCT HARD WORK NO WOOOO....
-
lol at franco strongest ever comment, i seen ppl enter the gym, warm up, do 5 plates on the bench ,stand up and go home as if it was the easiest thing in the world.
franco columbo is a little italian cocksucking liar, he "forgot" to mention peds 15lbs more in 8 weeks, yeah, mst be due to his training programme ::)
why cant he simply be honest about it and say it straight out on live tv.
So you think the guy who did five plates is clean? Bet the guy who does five plates is no where near under 200lbs. You're just embarassing yourself now.
-
BUT UR CLEAN SO ITS 100 PCT HARD WORK NO WOOOO....
i am clean... well... clean from a PED perspective... but i haven't showered since yesterday... no homo
-
i am clean... well... clean from a PED perspective... but i haven't showered since yesterday... no homo
lol... ;D...i know what u meant,,,
-
no the guy was on 1 or 2 ampoules test every day, that i know.
you believ franco did 5plates at bodyweight of under 200lbs and off steroids and claim im embarassing myself?
comeon, how long he been off there, 1 day?
Never said I believed him, I didn't just get off the boat.
-
franco=all torso
-
Franco once claimed to have not done drugs until he won the 76 olympia
Franco also claimed to be affiliated to a chiropractic institution or higher learning institute, falsely, to the point they distanced themselves and asked him to refrain from it
Franco once claimed he had better back development than Yates
Franco "the child", said a lot of things. Maybe took too many advices...

I remember that claim. He blasted Yates and Haney because there was empty space visible between their arms and lats in a front lat spread.
Yates laughed at him and said that it's easy to meet Franco's criterion with his short t-rex arms :D

He was very good, but Marvin Eder ate his lunch, and on no AAS (or next to nothing compared to what Franco took) no less.
-
Frank Zane hated Franco with a passion. Zane could never understand why the midget was so happy to pose at the feet of Arnold.

lol @ Dr Columbu....this midget is a gloried masseur...did not have the brains nor the commitment to pursue real medicine....Chiropractor s and charletans

Ha ha dwarf cant even put feet flat on the floor when benching, better back than yates ::)

lol..yes, those little pig trotters..this so called sport is full of midgets.
-
Franko was the man, so many haters hah.
-
Franko was the man, so many haters hah.
this is NOT about hating on Franco you ignorant dip shit. It is about stating some obvious irregularities and contradictions in the man.
It is NOT hating when you call Franco a midget with pig trotter feet, who loved posing at the feet of Arnold and possesses a dodgy doctorate in massage (aka chiropracting). This is who the man is !
Now scram cum stain, you don't contribute anything constructive
-
There's a guy on bb.com who uses Franco as his Chiropractor
Franco is a chiro. Maybe he is very good.
I checked, in 2004 the California Board of Chiropractic Examiners asked him to stop claiming on his letterhead that he has a Ph.D. in nutrition, but he still claims to hold the degree.
-
franco was a pioneer in bbing, and arnold always kept him in the loop, even gave him a state position when arnold became governor of ca, and he was in the terminator movie.
-

I don't know man, Franco's back was right up there, I mean you could almost say he was natural compared to all the shit Yates was taking. Pretty sure he could outlift Yates too.
-
franco was a pioneer in bbing, and arnold always kept him in the loop, even gave him a state position when arnold became governor of ca, and he was in the terminator movie.
lol @ 'pioneer of bodybuilding'....This midget was used by Arnold to make him look larger than life. Bottom line, anyone looks impressive when standing next to a roided midget like the child Franco.
Arnold was a master manipulator and he excelled at manipulating the Franco.
-
Ha ha dwarf cant even put feet flat on the floor when benching, better back than yates ::)
Maybe you should start keeping your feet off the floor, whatever he did seemed to work.
Unparalleled upper chest development.

more like unparalleled in the midget dept.....nothing screams insecurity more than a midget roided bodybuilder.

What is this Rainbow 2 movie he keeps talking about. Never seen it.
-

A pioneer in bodybuilding? Hardly.
Too bad all of arnolds efforts didnt make franco a movie star. Did franco get a walk on role in anything other than conan. I think arnold did an appearance in one of franco's ill fated movies.
-
Frank Zane hated Franco with a passion. Zane could never understand why the midget was so happy to pose at the feet of Arnold.
Franco claimed he beat Zane three times and that Zane never beat him in competition...Zane said that Franco is full of shit and that he beat Franco twice and franco beat him once early on in Zane's career
-
face looks very good there.
no homo
lol @ 'face looks good'....Franco had the classic dwarfe-like facial features ...eyes close together etc....Franco sounds so retarded when he speaks...that lisp and mouth full of saliva when he speaks...arnold was very patient with this munchkin.
-
stallone probably trained with him a few times. franco wants to take alot of the credit.

Why can't you simply be hOnest and admit you're an euro cocksucking dyson machine?

First Things First "ABCESS INSIDE MY ANUS" aka Sir Twinks O' Lot, your such a gargantuan flamer that even the Bravo TV-station
wouldn't dare associate with a dickrider such as yourself.
Secondly, i don't want to interrupt your daily routine of asking young men at the gym for a spot while doing stiff leg deadlifts,
followed by an invitation to a local bathhouse where you offer to give them complimentary prostate exams,
all topped off by you asking a sperm donation clinic if they have any job opportunities as a taste-tester.

There you go again fuckwad -using every homosexual reference available. You certainly possess deeply seeded anal fixations.
I know this is a touchy subject, butt were you once anally violated? What is the root cause of your anal obsessions?
Bottom line dick splat, your twisted and vile anal fantasies have a deep and penetrating hold over you. You are not only a danger to yourself but all those who come into contact with you.
3,2,1 waiting for you to chime in with yet another anally driven diatribe...you filthy repressed homo muncher.

Some groundbreaking shit right thurr. Wouldn't have known how to do biceps curls and triceps extensions without the help of "Dr." Columbo.
hahaha what a pathetic, washed up (never) has-been... ::)

"NOABCENSEOFAIDS", everyone know by now your oblong headed obsession with man-bear-pigs as well as your heroic attempts to steal a pair of their soiled and worn y-fronts to wear as a face mask to huff through as Darth Gaydar while you stalk cub scouts outside the local YMCA.
Aside from the warped and vile thoughts which fester in that colossal boil you call a head, which would make Chris Hanson weep, you constantly mash those quim coated snausages on your Hewlett Packard soft-key starting posts which rival the entertainment value of watching "tbombz" braid his rastafari-esque taint hairs in different lanyard patterns which he learned in day camp.
Because these sickening images get your mis-shapen dradle of a penis at half mast that doesn't mean you need to keep posting.
Now, kindly squat your gelatinous carcass on all fours which is no new position for you, and walk your way out through getbigs 'doggie door' before I wrap your single stranded Ace Ventura cowlick around that greasy eczema infested neck,
use your suspenders to hang you from the top of the Rainbow buffet flag pole, and watch you get the "21 fag salute", you vile heathen.
Simply put, what I'm alluding to "NOABSENCEOFAIDS", is that the only thing possibly more queer than you,would be Richard Simmons, draped head to toe in velvet, guzzleing a man-goo milkshake, getting buggered by the corpse of Liberace, while simultaneously giving George Michaels a reach-around.

wow, you are just grabbing the cliche homosexual stereotypes so freely -with such gay abandon.
i have obviously hit a raw nerve. you have confirmed via you very repetative and predictable posts that you are indeed a repressed homosexual - acting out your home erotic fantasies via your very laborious and tedious posts.
bottom line fucktard, you can be whatever you want to be. I give you licence to continue to explore homosexual intrigue. but just go to male steam room and do your cock gogling there -not here!
answer this shit stain; have you ever taken a penis deep inside your ass? i don't expect you to answer. but i can deduce from your homosexual rantings that you would not be opposed to a thick, slimy and veiny man-slug penetrating your smelly and sweaty anal canal...enough said....now scram dick scab.

Franco looked huge here. Guy had a great torso and really strong
You can see why he chose to befriend Renato Bertagna, he made him look tall

Beside Francos stellar performances in Running Man, Conan and Terminator...
Francos best movies
Desperate Crimes
Beretta's Island, where he stars as Franco Armando Beretta
Francos masterpiece "Doublecross on Costa's Island"
(http://i2.listal.com/image/3222517/600full-doublecross-on-costa%27s-island-artwork.jpg)
Epic Franco at 0:30 in "Ancient Warriors"
Franco in "Big Top Pee-Wee" as Otto the Strongman
(http://www.nyx.net/~ewilli/BigTopPW1.jpg)
As a bonus to "NoAbsenceOfAids", here is Kevin Flynn, Freddie Krueger and Terminator

LOL
I don't know if they look they have a penchant for protein from the tap, or not...
I think the other guy must be 5', he was very ripped for the day always. But in clothes must've looked tiny. Difficult trying to explain to people that you won the Mr Universe Lightweight div, when you look like a jockey.
Height and gay stereotypes aside, good everyday walk around physiques with some low maintenance

I don't know are these guys at your gym benching 455 with no spotter and weighing just 188lbs?
franco benched 555lbs I think at his best weighin under 200lbs. The guy also had very good form on most lifts but he had a short range of motion due to being short. so what you want but he was one strong son of a bitch! and he did not abuse AAS/HGH/slin like todays bodybuilders! look at some of his back/ lat spread shots the guy has no space showing at all between arms and lats. Hug for 200lbs! way stronger then me! no way I could ever lift that much on all the drugs in the world!

Francos routine to get that swimmers-build Rambo-physique
I've yet to see a swimmer with this level of development. I always find such a characterization humerous, as if such a physique is so readily obtainable and unimpressive. One would gather based on such statements, that those making them have superior physiques to the Stallones and Zanes of the world, but I'm not seeing it. If this were true, it's a wonder that Stallone in his Rambo form, was able to inspire so many with his physique. Stallone hardly resembles Michael Phelps.

Only reason why no gh/slin, is cause it wasn't around. Just like everyone he mega dosed on everything. Back then guys like mentzer bros, viator, giuliani were doing meth to cut up, and. supress appetite...
A bodybuilder is a bodybuilder, only difference back then is pics were b&w, and no internet, so they got away with shit
Franco was strong, very strong, great chest and back. But very short limbs so a bit easier to hide gap between arms in lat spread, much like eduardo kawak,

Franco never deserved a Mr. O title, despite his having a then-world-class physique. Without Arnold as his close buddy, the guy would have possibly won a Mr. Universe, short class, or some shit.
And his attempts to break into Hollywood were some of the most embarrassing of all time.

So i guess "its who you know in hollywood" is all B.S if even arnold couldnt help out the little fag, studios will never invest in that loser, back to massaging lol

WOOOSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Once upon the time Franco was fantastic and he looked pretty sporty and healthy even muscled up.
Like many, or most, bodybuilders he's a snake oil salesman.
-
Nobody has ever talked about how Franco got divorced, he was once married to "Dr. Anita Columbu". I heard Franco used to cheat on her, anyone know more??

I only know of the rampages he and Arnold got up to back in the day. Yes, Franco always got the slops.
Bottom line, Franco is your text book Guido. He would put is little Italian sausage in anything that was warm.
-

Common knowledge for quite a few years
Giuliani did gay porn too
kuehn and Tinnerino also did rec drugs and drank a lot. Koontz landed up in the streets, Tinnerino was born again

lol...good find.
Yeah, Franco has never been a wordsmith. In fact, i always found him to sound mildly retarded when speaking.
I always thought Arnold treated him quite cruelly -mocking and bullying this super mario
Later years, would stumble and mumble his words....mild stroke maybe?
-
Considering english is his 3rd language, and maybe he hangs out in circles where he speaks italian and german with friends/family, not too bad...

1.was Franco a good actor? NO!
2.Did franco cheat on his wife? I am pretty sure he did! so did Arnold!
3.Did Franco deserve to win the Mr.O in 1981-NO! But he looked great in the late 70's and in Pumping Iron! 81 was definately a charity victory! But Franco at one time did have a Mr.O physique!
4. Was Franco strong as a bull on low dose of steroids by todays standards and no HGH/slin YES!
5. Did Franco train hard and lift some heavy ass weights-Yes!
6. Is franco Rich and live a good life? Yes!

10. will Franco always be remembered when it comes to bodybuilding-Yes!
-
Was Franco the BEST Actor ever lived, only rivaled by The Asian Sensation Wong Hong?
YES
-
He received $1M payout from WSM lawsuit, back in the 80s
Also very impressive the shape he got into after, the doctors told him he would never walk again, yet he came back
-

Lucrative lawsuit! Yet another millionaire on Getbig then!

Yup, just about snapped his leg off and didn't even let out a whimper, could teach all those million dollar football players and basketball players a thing or two about being tough.

-

WSM must have a team of lawyers laying out indemnity forms nowdays, plus heavy insurance . Although the events aren't as crazy anymore . Craziest I saw was the barrel run .

What drugs did Franco put Sly on?
-
.

Today Sylvester Stallone is an inspiration to many who strive to improve their physical prowess, willpower and determination. For an example of his physique at its best, take a look at films like Rocky III or IV, Rambo II, or Rambo III and be amazed at what can be accomplished with sheer determination. Of course, Sly has had his fair share of injuries from his incredible physical pursuits. When training for Rocky II, Sly trained so hard with two time Mr. Olympia Franco Columbu, that he tore his pectoralis, resulting in a four hour operation.
To get the lean look of a POW in the film Victory, Sylvester ate only 200 calories a day, all protein food, with an occasional potato, just so he wouldn't faint. In the film he weighed in at 159 pounds, the lightest he ever weighed in his adulthood, until Rocky III.
When making Rocky III, Sly would begin the day with a two mile jog, then go straight into 18 rounds of sparring, 2 hours of weightlifting and jumping rope. After all this, he would take a nap in the afternoon, then go running again! He would finish the day with a swim. On this film he made himself even leaner and smaller to enhance the ‘David & Goliath’ imagery. To get this effect Stallone dropped his body weight to a mere 155 lbs, with a diet of 10 eggwhites and a burnt piece of toast once a day, and a piece of fruit every third day. Although this diet left him weak and dizzy, he then built his muscle mass up ounce by ounce until he was up to about 175.
The rigorous training continued for Rocky IV. During the scene where Rocky is pulling a sled, Sly heard a snap. Two weeks later he had excruciating pains in his chest. When he went to the hospital he found out it was a bruised heart muscle. Stallone was back on set filming only 10 days later to complete the movie.
Although Sly found these dieting methods good to lose weight in extreme ways for a role, Sly himself recommends that the best way to lose weight and stay healthy is a balanced nutritional meal and regular exercise. Remember it is never too late to workout and get in shape. Sly was 30 years old when he made the first Rocky and in a matter of only a few years the body of Sylvester Stallone was known and revered worldwide. We hope you enjoy the following information on Stallone's nutrition and exercise regimen.
Sylvester Stallone
Chapter 2 – Nutrition and Regimen
"If I know that I'm getting ready to do another 'Rambo,' I have to live up to the last film. That makes it a little bit harder to get in shape. I have a machine like an escalator with the steps coming down, and I pile 40 to 50 pounds of weight on my back and start climbing those endless steps."
Stallone is well known for his muscular physique, hard work and determination. Even Arnold Schwarzenneger once said Sylvester has awesome willpower.
"Sly is the most disciplined man that you'll ever meet in any walk of life," says his personal bodyguard Gary Compton. "He doesn't eat real late, he doesn't snack, and he doesn't eat much. Pasta? Yes, but not too often, and only when it's made with a special flour. Fish and brown rice are staples. He even eats fish for breakfast. He drinks little alcohol, but occasionally enjoys champagne. Quick energy? Would you believe oatmeal cookies? Of course, without processed sugar of preservatives."
Q: So did you ever use steroids to build yourself up?
A: In 1987, when I was making Rambo III, I used to take an amino acid that's nearly as strong as steroids. It's about 15 times more powerful than the typical amino acid, but give none of the raw rage - the anger - that comes with steroids. All steroids do is make you a cumbersome, apelike goon.
When Stallone first came to Franco to begin training, he was 170 pounds and very well defined. But he didn't feel he was big enough and wanted to put on 10 pounds of muscle in six weeks. Franco knew how hard Stallone was capable of training, so he decided that was a feasible goal.
"Sylvester gained just about 10 pounds in six and a half weeks," Franco says. "He has great structure, with a waist only about 29 inches. When we started, he had a 44-inch chest. At the end, his chest was almost 50 inches. And his arms went from 16 ½ inches to 18 inches. He was bigger, harder and much more muscular. Wait until you see him in the movie. He's going to shock a lot of people by how good he looks."
Franco worked out a program for Stallone based on a two day double split:
MONDAY/WEDNESDAY/FRIDAY
Morning: Chest, back, abs
Afternoon: Shoulders, arms, abs
TUESDAY/THURSDAY/SATURDAY
Morning: Calves, thighs
Afternoon: Rear delts, traps, abs
Franco had Stallone training abs three times every two days, doing 500 reps every ab workout. "We trained four different ab and torso exercises: sit-ups, leg raises, side leg raises, and side bends. We did 50 reps of each, one exercise right after another, and five sets of this cycle. And wait until you see the results. Sly has great abs, intercostals, serratus, everything."
Stallone's measurements when he was filming Rambo II were: chest around 50", 29 ½ " waist, and 17 inch biceps. His body fat runs 4 ½ %, although when he's not filming it's 6 %. Loud bursts of energy can be heard as the star does push-ups to get pumped up for some photos.

:D
-
always liked his build/approach to keeping in top shape.some of the tears has wrecked his look tho,,,
-
To get the lean look of a POW in the film Victory, Sylvester ate only 200 calories a day, all protein food, with an occasional potato, just so he wouldn't faint. In the film he weighed in at 159 pounds, the lightest he ever weighed in his adulthood, until Rocky III.

But honestly, imagine the HUGE scandal if he admitted to using steroids and how it would be replayed on every news channel.
